Liberator - Irish Malt Whiskey Tawny Port Finish
Following the successful Inaugural Release, The Liberator Irish Malt Port Finish Batch 4 is a vatted Malt, comprising 22% 2006 Cooley Single Malt and 2015 Great Northern Single Malt. The younger Whiskey spent 9-12 months in really fresh Tawny Port Casks, contributing a fantastic golden red colour and intensity, richness and complexity to the Whiskey. Gently cut over 5-6 weeks, reducing the ABV by 1-2% each week, this has resulted in a smoother Whiskey. Natural colour, not chill filtered.
Expect intense fruit on the nose, with dried cherries, figs, and citrus zest. On the palate, a smooth, soft sparkle, with toasted malt, hazelnuts, blackberries, kiwi and fig roll. The finish is long, warm, and spicy, with pepper and citrus zest.
